Easy to install. App easy to use. Works great!

Echo brake control products are Bluetooth® enabled which allows your smartphone to connect directly to the brake controller, allowing settings to be adjusted on-the-go.

TheOneControl Auto app works on Android and Apple smartphones and allows you to control brake max output, adjust brake sensitivity and activate trailer brakes manually and allows you to save towing profiles.

With Echo, you can wirelessly control up to four axles or eight individual trailer brakes, and maintain smooth, controlled braking when towing trailers.

Echo mobile features a portable, plug-and-play design that's perfect for use with multiple vehicles. It's easy to use and quickly inserts into the standard 7-way RV blade socket at the rear of your vehicle and can control up to two axles or four trailer brakes.

Echo under-dash is perfect for mounting in the cabin of your truck and uses a vehicle-specific quick plug harness. It's tucked away from outdoor elements and is ideal for controlling up to four axles or eight trailer brakes and works without using the 7-way RV blade towing socket.

Echo in-line permanently mounts under the rear of the tow vehicle and can control up to four axles or eight trailer brakes. It plugs in-line into the existing 7-way RV blade wiring harness and is hidden away from view under the rear of the vehicle.

The Echo mobile trailer brake controller is perfect for towing on-the-go, especially if towing with multiple vehicles. Echo mobile is portable and sets up quickly by plugging into the 7-way RV blade socket at the rear of your truck and can be quicky dismounted and easily transferred between vehicles or even stowed away when not in use.

Echo mobile mounts quickly and easily with no tools required, making it the easiest-to-use brake controller system available. It features a triple-axis, motion-sensing accelerometer that provides smooth and precise braking.

Echo Mobile mounts into the 7-way RV blade socket at the rear of your vehicle and is secured with the provided strap and features weather-resistant construction that is made to endure the outdoor elements and is overall an excellent choice of brake controller because of its portability, ease of use with multiple vehicles and storability. 

The Echo under-dash trailer brake controller is ideal for everyday towing and mounts under the dash, within the interior of your truck. It works differently than other brake controllers, as it does not use the 7-way RV blade socket and instead utilizes a vehicle-specific quick plug harness that is permanently wired into the factory wiring harness of your truck.

Echo under-dash requires wiring and basic hand tools, as well as the wiring kit and the vehicle-specific plug harness. It may also be mounted with the optional bracket. Once installed, the under-dash brake controller is securely stored away from outside elements.

For regular towing and a brake controller that is securely stored inside of the vehicle, the under-dash Echo brake controller is ideal.

The Echo in-line brake controller is ideal for everyday towing and mounts under the rear of the tow vehicle, out of sight. It works differently than the under-dash brake control, as it plugs in-line into the 7-way RV blade socket and doesn't require extensive wiring, although it should be installed professionally.

Echo in-line mounts underneath the vehicle and requires installation. It wires into the 7-way RV blade socket harness, which must be installed prior. Once installed, the in-line brake controller is out of sight and is intended to be mounted permanently.

The in-line under-dash brake controller provides smooth and precise braking through its triple-axis, motion-sensing accelerometer that allows smooth and precise braking.

Echo Manual Override Button

To support hands-free driving, a manual override button #51189 is available to complement the Echo (sold separately). This wireless, Bluetooth button works with the OneControl app to enable manual activation of the trailer brakes.

The OneControl app must be operating in the foreground of your cell phone applications. Operating the app in the background of your cell phone applications may cause delays in braking response when using the manual override button.

A wireless brake controller is a brake controller that doesn’t require a traditional wiring connection to the vehicle for operation. The CURT Echo wireless brake controller eliminates the need for a separate splice-in or factory wiring installation.

A Bluetooth brake controller is a brake controller that uses radio signals to connect to your smartphone, allowing it to become the interface for trailer brake operation. Bluetooth eliminates the need for physical wires or cables to be connected from the brake controller to the phone.
